For the first time since 1918 (99 years ago) 1 , a total solar eclipse will be visible from coast to coast in North America! At this exciting time, tens of thousands of people from around the world are gathering to see this momentous event.

The August 21, 2017, solar eclipse will fall directly over 10 PathwayConnect locations, including the BYU-Idaho campus in Rexburg, Idaho. While a total eclipse will only be visible through the path of totality (areas in which viewers will see the moon completely cover the sun), a partial eclipse will be visible throughout most of North America and parts of South America and Europe — making the eclipse visible to more than 400 PathwayConnect locations!
